Marine Gardens Bowling Club, report w/ending 19th May 2024
(May 19, 2024)On Wednesday evening members enjoyed a social evening playing “Shuffleboard” organised by Social Secretary, Wendy Wilson at Worthing Indoor Bowling Club.
Regarding matches, this was a quiet week for Marine Gardens bowlers with only two of the three fixtures on the card being played, one being cancelled due to rain.
The friendly at home against East Preston was keenly contested with Marine Gardens edging it by three rinks to two (86 - 71). There was no more than a 5-shot difference in 4 rinks, but top honours went to Roy Mills, Pauline Hughes and skip Jenny Ashman with an impressive 19-7 win in the 5th rink.
Our Stracey Shield match at Worthing ended up with 2 rinks each, with Worthing claiming the match points with a convincing 112 - 59 scoreline. Top dogs for Marine Gardens were Brian Saunders, Alan Paterson, Liz Baldwin and skip Mark Berriman who dug in for a 20 - 16 win.
Next week looks busier with 5 matches scheduled for play followed by an Open Day on Sunday 26th May when interested parties are warmly invited to 'give bowls a go' between 11 am and 3 pm. Do come along and join us on the green you will be met with a warm welcome.
